My grandpa left me a roll of only these things when he died, any thoughts on value?
Anonymous Coward User ID: 84489066 United States 03/23/2023 07:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	My grandpa left me a roll of only these things when he died, any thoughts on value? My grandpa died at age 97 about a week ago. He left me a nice old Bulova watch, a gold ring with a stone that looks like a glob of Vasoline, a roll of 1943 penny’s and some civil war records from his grandfather. He also left me 20 acres of land. Any one think any of it of value other than the land?

There were a few made of the normal copper and those are really, really rare. You'd want to open that roll while wearing cotton gloves and working hard not to touch them. If you start to see the luster of shiny copper, even if a bit toned, and they're all 43 dates you'll be a happy person.

If you have a cooper 1943 penny, it could bring in up to 100k. They were made by accident and there are only a handful known to exist. Internet says “The 1943 Copper S penny is one of the most rare coins in circulation in the United States. There are 12 that are known, with an additional 28 that may exist, but no one knows for sure, the number of 40 is an estimation based on the theory of how they were accidently produced”. To the victor goes the spoils.

The gold ring is probably worth a lot, look at the price of gold in jewelry stores and the stone is probably rare as heck. Sounds like he left you a gold mine and depending on what state you are in you might have minerals or something great on your land.

Test all the 1943 pennies with a magnet. If any of them don't stick to the magnet and the penny is 1943 you have a struck gold.
